Level 3

Being able to explain the gospel simply and clearly. You are able to articulate in a simple way the main points of the gospel. Why did Jesus die? What difference does it make to you? Perhaps you have practiced and memorized a gospel script (How to Practice a Gospel Presentation). You can do this with strangers, or perhaps only with close friends that you have built a meaningful relationship with.

Level 4

You are comfortable inviting people to start following Jesus, inviting them to make a commitment. If you are preacher, you may have great skill, or need to develop your skill in giving an invitation to follow Christ (Giving an invitation) as part of your sermons every now and then.

For the Evangelism Trainer

I have found this little tool helpful to offer to people in my seminars. Here is how to use it:

Take a moment and place yourself on this scale.

Where are you most comfortable?

What can you do in the next 6 months to move to the next level?

Then offer a sharing time and have people set a goal for their personal growth in evangelism.
